Shinyribs Booking Agency Profile

Book Shinyribs for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Shinyribs is the continuation of Kevin Russell’s musical journey which began in Beaumont,TX at the age of 14, when he found his father’s guitar under his bed, along with a sewing machine, a billy club and a box of comic books. Luckily he chose the guitar. Following his family’s oil boom and bust migratory path, he landed in Shreveport, LA where he formed his first band. Picket Line Coyotes were a Husker Du meets Elvis Costello hybrid that lived and died between the “Arklatexabamassippi” borders much like their unfortunate animal namesake. That’s what took him to Austin where The Gourds were born from those Coyote ashes. That storied band of pumpkins came to an end after 18 years of good times and hard travelin’. And from that point on Russell has been riding high on the Shinyribs river of country-soul, swamp-funk and tickle. A Shinyribs show is an exaltation of spirit. It’s a hip shaking, belly laughing, soul-singing, song-slinging, down-home house party. All styles of American music are likely to be touched on, squeezed on, kissed on by this world class band featuring Winfield Cheek on Keyboards, Keith Langford on Drums, Jeff Brown on Bass and the Tijuana Train Wreck Horns. Whether on his 6 string Uke or his Electric guitar or singing acapella Russell will entertain you like no one else. The freedom with which he moves coupled with his incredible voice is an experience in and of itself. His original songs laced with magical-realism along with novel interpretations of popular songs old and new (George Jones, TLC, Leadbelly, T-Pain) are the true art that runs throughout. He’s Burl Ives meets Al Green, Hank, Jr. meets Teddy Pendergrass. Wendell Berry meets Chuck Berry. Truly something not to be missed. A unique musical experience and an original expression of our colorful musical heritage..

Frequently Asked Questions about booking Shinyribs to perform.

Many performers, actors, speakers and other talent like Shinyribs in certain cases will consider virtual appearances via live streaming. They perhaps may accept lower fees too. If you are seriously interested in booking Shinyribs or other talent shown on our site, we will research their desire and the specific fee for your live-streaming event or project request.
Shinyribs's current work schedule and location in relation to your event's type, date, budget, and locality will play a primary factor in the acceptance of booking Shinyribs for your party. As long as your funding is commensurate with the price range to book Shinyribs, CTI will propose your event to the official agency representing Shinyribs. After we consult with them, we will provide a personal and accurate quote that includes: final costs, availability, and actual interest in being hired for your specific event or party.
CTI can give you the accurate Shinyribs booking price once we submit your event details to their camp. "How much does it cost to book Shinyribs for an event?" is a frequent question we get. The final Shinyribs booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Shinyribs charge for an event. An example fee to book Shinyribs is in the starting range of $15,000-$24,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
CTI negotiates on behalf of professional event planners and talent buyers for paid appearances! We cannot give out direct contact information of the Shinyribs agent or help distribute fan mail, personal messages, gifts, requests for free appearances, or donations of time. The Shinyribs manager and agent will only work with us if we present them with funded offers for their client to work your event.
There is low probability to book Shinyribs for a party with anything substantially less than the published booking cost price range. We will negotiate with the Shinyribs agent on your behalf if your funding is in place. By not having funding ready then it will more difficult to book Shinyribs, because they get many offers to work events that are at or above asking price. It is also important to consider the travel costs when researching the Shinyribs booking fee, as additional expenses like this, as well as an entourage of staff and equipment, are not necessarily built-in to the booking fee range shown. If your budget does not factor that in, then there is no benefit for them to want to be hired. We do not personally speak for Shinyribs, but in our experience in booking talent for over 25 years, this is generally the outcome of inadequate funding.
